IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS When Loading Items To Be Washed Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door seal. Load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries. Do not load plastic items unless they are marked Dishwasher Safe or the equivalent. For plastic items not marked as such, check the manufacturers recommendations. Do not load glasses over the dish rack pins. Glasses loaded over dish rack pins are not properly supported and are likely to get damaged. Items with wooden or bone handles, or items joined together with glue are unsuitable as they cannot resist hot water. Open the door very carefully if the dishwasher is operating, there is a risk of water squirting out. Warning When using your dishwasher, follow basic safety precautions: Read all instructions before using the dishwasher. Use the dishwasher only for it s intended use. Use only detergents or wetting agents recommended for use in a dishwasher and keep them out of reach of children. Check that the detergent receptacle is empty after the completion of the wash cycle. Do not operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place. Do not tamper with controls. Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the open door or dish-rack of the dishwasher. The machine may topple over. Protect cables and hoses from high temperatures. To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to operate or play on the dishwasher. When removing an old dishwasher for service or discarding it, remove the door to the washing compartment. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot-water system that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot-water system has not been used for such a period, before using the dishwasher, turn on all hot-water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As hydrogen gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time. 2 SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Electrical Instructions Grounding Instructions Refer to the rating label to connect the dishwasher to the appropriate power supply. Use the required 15 amp fuse, time delay fuse or circuit breaker and make sure that a suitable electrical supply socket is located close to where the dishwasher is to be placed. Warning This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction, or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing the path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. Do not use an extension cord or adapter plug with this appliance. Warning Improper connection of the grounding conductor can result in the risk of an electric shock. Ensure proper ground exists before use. Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance. If the plug does not fit properly to the outlet, please have a qualified electrician to install a proper outlet. 3
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS All Installations Remove all packing materials carefully. Make sure the electrical power supply is within easy reach of the machine and the power cord is not excessively or dangerously bent or flattened. Supply shut-off valves should be easily accessible. If the water pipes you will be connecting to are new or unused, run the water until clear to remove any debris that could clog the water valves before connecting the machine. The appliance should be connected to the water mains using only new hose sets. Old hose-sets should not be reused. The dishwasher must be installed on a solid level surface. Electrical Machine Voltage/Amperage: 120V, 60 Hz, 5.72 Total Amps Connection: 3-prong plug with cord provided Circuit/Protector: 3-wire single phase, 120V, 60Hz, AC, on a separate 15 Amp circuit. For Best Results Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of hot clean water and detergent (under pressure) against the soiled surface of dishes. The water is pumped through a rotating spray arm, drained through a filter (to remove food and soiled particles) and pumped back through the spray arm. The unit has an internal water heating element for cold water hookup. Soiled water is pumped out and replaced with clean water at the end of each cycle (the number of times depends on the cycle being used). For best cleaning results, the water temperature must be at least 130 F (55 C). To prevent dishwasher damage, the temperature of the incoming water supply should not exceed 160 F (71 C). Note: Hard Water conditions will adversely affect washability performance of your dishwasher. Hard water conditions will also contribute to Lime (white film substance) deposits and/or Scaling on the stainless steel surface of the dishwasher tub and Heater Element located in the sump underneath the removable filter screen. To assist in minimizing these conditions, it is recommended to periodically operate/rinse the inside of the dishwasher (empty) using 1 cup of white vinegar (at least once a week). Water For best operating results, incoming water pressure should be between 10 and 145 psi (.7 and 10 bar). Incoming water supply for the dishwasher is controlled by a pressure switch application, so if available water pressure is low, dishwasher fill time will be longer. The dishwasher is equipped with water supply and drain hoses that can be positioned to the right or the left to facilitate proper installation. Warning Electrical Shock Hazard Disconnect electrical power before installing dishwasher. Failure to do so can result in death or electrical shock Important The installation of the pipes and electrical equipment should be done by professionals. 4

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Location and water connection Installation Location For cutout dimensions, refer to the drawing below. Position the appliance in the desired location. The drain hoses can be positioned to the right or the left to facilitate proper installation. Connect the Inlet Hoses The water inlet hose from the machine terminates in a 3/4 female connector. The water supply should therefore terminate in a similar male connector and should have a shutoff close by in the pipe. Make sure the water supply connection is within easy reach of the machine (The unit has an internal heating element for cold water hookup). The fill-drain hose assembly is 5 Feet (152.4 cm) long. Electrical, Drain, and Water Connections 1 * The dishwasher door can be recessed for * a flush face mount within the cabinet. For a flush mount, add 5/8 to min. depth dimension. 4 6
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Water Drainage Install the Drain Hose Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter of 1½, or let it run into the sink, making sure to avoid bending or crimping it. If you need a drain hose extension, be sure to use a similar drain hose to what is included with the unit. For optimum performance of the dishwasher, the drain hose extension must be no longer than 6 feet in length. as electrical or duct tape to cover sharp edges that could damage the drain hose. Use a suitable clamp to secure the drain hose to the Y branch or disposer. With a sink drainpipe system, you may connect directly: 1) To a disposer by following the manufacturers attachment method. 2) directly to a Y branch tailpiece (available at most hardware stores). Standpipe Drain System: No point of the drain hose must ever be placed higher than the top of the machine. If this should ever happen, the functioning of the machine can be affected. Sink Drainpipe System: When routing the drain hose through cabinets or walls, use a protective material such Outlet Hose Hanger Sink Y Branch Standpipe Floor Standpipe Drain 1½ ID Standpipe attention Sink The outlet hose hanger must be securely fastened to the wall to prevent the drain hose from moving and water from spilling outside of the drain. 12 Y Branch 7
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Finish the installation Secure the Unit to the Cabinet To finish the installation, secure the unit to the cabinet using a screwdriver and the two installation screws provided (there is one screw hole on each side). Once the screws are installed, cover them with the included screw caps (shown right). 8
USE AND CARE LOADING THE DISHWASHER Wash Up to Six Place Settings The dishwasher is designed to receive a standard 6 piece plate setting consisting of the following: 6 Dinner Plates 6 Bread & Butter Plates 6 Fruit Bowls 6 Cups and Saucers 1 Serving Bowl 1 Oval Platter 6 Short Glasses 6 Dinner Forks 6 Dinner Knives 6 Salad Forks 6 Teaspoons 2 Serving Spoons 1 Serving Fork NOTE: For ease of loading/unloading large size dinner plates from the dish rack it may be necessary to temporarily remove the cutlery basket. For best results, do not over load your dishwasher. Preparing Your Items For Washing Load only items that are considered Dishwasher Safe (Do not load wooden, pewter, crystal, steel, glued or bonded items, or items made with synthetic fibers) Scrape off all solid food particles from the dishes. Remove excessive quantities of oil or grease. Empty any liquids from glasses and cups. All dishes should be thoroughly rinsed before being placed inside the dishwasher. Arrange all items with recessed or curved sections on a slant to drain water away. Cups, pots, glasses etc. should be placed upside down. When loading the cutlery basket, sharp items should be loaded handle-up, all other items should be loaded handle-down. To avoid damage to glasses, they should not be allowed to touch Important When loading the cutlery basket, load sharp utensils handle up, but do not let any sharp item extend through the bottom of the basket. Especially long items should be placed in the horizontal position at the front of the upper basket. NOTE: Dishes with dried-on foods are more difficult to wash and may not come clean in a normal wash cycle. 9
USE AND CARE Using Detergent Using the Right Detergent Use only a mild detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers, as other types will cause oversudsing. If your detergent is old and/or lumpy, throw it away. Old detergent loses it s washing power. Lumpy detergent won t dissolve. The amount of detergent you use depends if your water is hard or soft. A B NOTE: Hard water requires more detergent to get dishes clean. Soft water requires less detergent to get dishes clean. Concentrated Powder A B 1 TBSP (15g) Powder Detergent 1.5 TBSP (25g) Powder Detergent (or Detergent Tablet) Unlike conventional detergents, concentrated detergents use natural enzymes instead of caustic components. Using a concentrated detergent in conjunction with the Normal allows you to achieve the same results as you would if you were using the Heavy cycle with a conventional detergent. This is better for your dishes and the environment. Detergent Tablets Detergent tablets take longer to dissolve and therefore require the use of longer wash programs (Heavy/Normal) to achieve their full cleaning power and to completely remove all detergent residue. When using detergent tablets, select a program with a longer wash to ensure the complete removal of detergent residue. Loading the Detergent Dispenser To load the detergent dispenser: 1. Press the release button to open the dispenser lid. 2. Fill the dispenser compartment(s) to the desired dosage level and close the door. Generally, only 1 Tablespoon of powder is needed for a Normal wash load. 3. Press the dispenser lid closed until it clicks shut. Pre-Wash Option: If dishes are heavily soiled, place an additional detergent dose in the Pre-Wash detergent chamber (the recessed area located on the top of the detergent dispenser lid). Caution NOTE: Always add detergent just before starting the wash cycle, otherwise it may get damp and not dissolve properly. Dishwashing detergent is corrosive. Keep all detergent out of reach of children. 10
USE AND CARE Using a rinse agent Using a Rinse Agent You can help prevent unsightly spots on dishes and glassware and reduce drying time by using a rinse agent. A rinse agent is specially formulated to rinse away food and detergent residues that can be left behind on your dishes. Used regularly, a rinse agent will automatically provide you with cleaner dishes every time you wash. Rise Aid Indicator To fill the rinse agent dispenser, unscrew the dispenser cap located on the inside of the dishwasher door. Slowly add the rinse agent into the dispenser until the level indicator turns completely black (about 4oz). Replace the cap. The dispenser automatically releases rinse agent into the final rinse water at the end of the wash cycle. When the rinse aid container is full, the entire rinse-aid indicator will be dark, as rinse aid is used, the size of the dark spot will decrease until it disappears completely when the rinse-aid container is empty. The rinse aid dispenser has four settings. The recommended setting is 3. If the dishes are still not drying properly or are spotted, adjust the dial to the next higher number. NOTE: For best results, do not let the rinse-aid container become empty. Increase the rinse aid setting (1, 2, 3 or 4) if there are drops of water or lime spots on the dishes after washing. Decrease if there are sticky/white stains on your dishes or a bluish film on glasses or cutlery. Important Only use rinse agent designed for dishwashers in the rinsing agent dispenser. Using any other substance (i.e. detergent) would damage the appliance. 11

G PROGRAM Button: Press this button and refer to the Program Indicator LED S to select a program. NOTE: At the beginning of each cycle, the dishwasher always starts in the drain mode. This is because the drain pump always retains a small amount of water (in the sump) from the previous (last) cycle. This is necessary to keep the pump primed. Therefore, don t be alarmed if a small amount of water being pumped out from the drain hose prior to the start of the regular wash cycle. THIS IS NORMAL. 14
USE AND CARE GUIDE Quick Operation Guide To Operate Your Dishwasher 1. Make sure the water inlet and drain hoses are correctly and securely connected and the water supply is turned on to full pressure. 2. Open the dishwasher door. 3. Place the dishes on the Dish Rack and the cutlery inside the Silverware Basket. 14. After washing, dishes should be allowed to cool down for approx. 15 minutes so they are not too hot to handle. Dishes will cool quicker if door is slightly open. It is normal for the dishwasher to still be wet inside. 15. After unloading the dishwasher, inspect the filter(s) and clean off any remaining food. 4. Check to make sure that the rotating spray arm can turn freely all the way around. If necessary, remove any obstacles. 5. Fill the dispenser compartment(s) with the desired dosage (Generally only 1 TBSP of powder loaded into the left compartment is needed for a Normal wash load). Press the Dispenser lid closed until it clicks shut. 6. Position the dishwasher door so that you have easy access to the controls, but DO NOT close the door completely. 7. Press the ON/OFF Button. The Power Light will illuminate, indicating the machine is receiving power. 8. If desired, press DELAY START and refer to the Delay Start DISPLAY to delay the start of the program by 1 to 24 hours. IMPORTANT IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT DRYING The dishes dry by a convection method only. To speed-up the drying time, it is suggested to leave the dishwasher door partially open after the program is complete. This will allow humidity from within to escape. 9. Press the PROGRAM Button and refer to the Program Indicator LED s to select a cycle. 10. Firmly close the dishwasher door. The cycle will begin. 11. To pause a program that has already started, open the dishwasher door. The cycle will resume 10 seconds after the door is closed. 12. At the end of the cycle, the dishwasher will beep for 8 seconds. 13. When the cycle is complete, always switch off the dishwasher by pressing the ON/OFF button and relieve pressure on the inlet hose by closing the water supply. 15
USE AND CARE About the Filter Assembly The dishwasher s filtering system prevents objects from blocking the pump and removes food particles from the wash water, allowing it to be recirculated. The FILTER ASSEMBLY consists of three filters: A. Coarse Filter Larger items that could block the drain are trapped in the coarse filter. B. Fine Filter This filter traps food residue in the sump area and prevents it from being redeposited on the dishes during the wash cycle. C. Main Filter Food particles trapped by this filter are pulverized by a special jet in the spray arm and washed down the drain. A C B Cleaning the Filters For best performance and cleaning results, the entire filter assembly must be clean and free of large food particles. After each use, inspect the filters for any blockages. To clean them, remove the filters in the following order and rinse them under running water: 1. Remove the FINE FILTER by rotating it counter-clockwise 2. Remove the MAIN FILTER by squeezing the tabs located on the top of this filter and lifting it out of the FINE FILTER 3. Once the other filters are removed, the COARSE FILTER can be taken out by lifting it straight up. 4. Reverse these steps to reinstall the FILTER ASSEMBLY. NOTE: Clean the entire filter assembly once per week. If needed, use a brush to clean the COARSE and FINE Filters. IMPORTANT When cleaning the filters, never strike them against another surface. This could cause them to become deformed and fail to work properly Never run the dishwasher without the filters in place Improper replacement of the filters may reduce dishwashing performance and damage dishes and utensils 16
USE AND CARE Caring for Your Dishwasher After Every Wash Turn the water supply to the dishwasher OFF. Leave the door slightly open so moisture and odors are not trapped inside Unplug the Dishwasher Before cleaning or performing any maintenance, always unplug the dishwasher from the electrical socket. No Solvents or Abrasive Cleaners Never use sharp objects, scouring pads or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher. To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products. Use only a cloth dampened with warm, soapy water. IMPORTANT Never use a spray cleaner to clean the door panel as it could damage the door latch and electrical components Abrasive agents or certain paper towels should not be used to clean the exterior of the dishwasher as they may scratch or leave spots on the stainless steel surface. When the Dishwasher is Not Used for Awhile Run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and then unplug the dishwasher from the electrical socket. Turn off the water supply and leave the door to the appliance slightly open. Moving the Appliance Whenever moving the appliance to a different installation location, try to keep it in a vertical position. If necessary, it can be transported on it s back. Verify door is closed. 17
USE AND CARE Cleaning Instructions The Control Panel The control panel can be cleaned using a damp cloth and then dried thoroughly. Rubber Seals One reason odors form in dishwashers is when food remains trapped inside the seals. Periodic cleaning with a damp cloth will prevent this from occurring. The Tub Should spots or stains form on the stainless steel tub, clean the interior using a cloth dampened with a weak mixture of water and vinegar or a cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers. The Door The edge around the inside of the dishwasher door can be cleaned using a damp cloth. Avoid dripping water into the door latch and electrical components, DO NOT use a spray cleaner of any kind. To clean the inner surface of the decorative door panel, 1. Remove the 8 screws (shown below) to slide the door panel out of the door. 2. Clean the surface using a soft, damp cloth. 3. When finished, slide the panel back into place and reinsert the screws. NOTE: Do not overtighten the screws! The Spray Arm To prevent the spray arm jets from clogging, the spray arm should be cleaned periodically. For easy cleaning, the entire spray arm can be removed by grasping it at the middle and pulling upwards. Once removed, rinse the spray arm under running water to clean the jets. After cleaning, make sure the spray arm is reinstalled correctly and can turn freely. Winterizing Your Dishwasher For dishwashers installed in RV s, boats, or wherever it will be exposed to freezing temperatures, take these steps to protect it from freezing. 1. Turn off electrical power to the dishwasher. 2. Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet hose from the water supply hose 3. Drain the water from the inlet pipe and water valve (Use a pan to catch the water). 4. Reconnect the water inlet hose to the water supply. 5. Remove the filter assembly at the bottom of the tub and use a sponge to soak up any water left in the sump area. NOTE: If your dishwasher cannot work because it has become frozen, please contact a service professional. 18
